GOLDSTEIN: UN’s global climate-change strategy a house of cards

On the heels of a report that says Canada will fail to meet its industrial greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in its ostensible fight against climate change comes a new United Nations report that says the same is true for global emissions.

The UN estimates global emissions will decrease by 17% compared to 1990 levels by 2035, far short of the 60% needed to avoid what it says would be catastrophic global warming, meaning an average global temperature increase of more than 1.5 C to 2 C.
